Any residing skins on this board, any one even that likes oi punk?

And before I get flamed, SKINS ARE NOT NAZI'S.


Skinheads, named after their shaven heads, are members of a working class subculture that originated in Britain in the 1960s, where they were heavily influenced by the rude boys of the West Indies and the mods of the UK.


Traditional skinheads (Trads, Trojan Skinheads) - They identify with the original skinhead movement (The Spirit of 69) in terms of music, style, culture and working class pride. Unlike the other categories, traditionalist skinheads often do not regard attitudes toward racism as central to the subculture.

Oi! skins and Punk-skinheads - Originating after the development of punk rock, they prefer Oi! and punk music. They often have shorter hair and more tattoos — and wear items such as high boots, tight jeans, T-Shirts and flight jackets. Although the original Oi! bands advocated a pro-worker populist stance, the Oi! fanbase includes a wide range of political beliefs.

Hardcore skins - A United States-based version of skinheads, part of the hardcore punk music scene associated with bands such as Iron Cross, Agnostic Front, Cro-mags, Sheer Terror, Warzone and Murphy's Law. Originating in the early 1980s, they differ from traditional skinheads by their musical tastes and a style of dress that is less strict. Political views vary, and are not essential to this group.

I personally am a Hardcore Skin. would like to meet and share musicical tastes with any oi punks as I am having a hard time finding good oi punk that is not nazi trash.

Casualties, oxymoron, oi polloi ,Pitbullfarm ( Rockabilli)

I hate oi polloi.
I like them because of;

1) The immense speech and then bass line of 'Nazi Scum'

&

2) Because they sometimes sing in Gaelic :D

Aye that's a poor song but then again they are miseducated anarchists

Los Fastidios are my favorites for anti-fascist Oi. Everyone check out Radio Rebelde, I'm playing a lot of leftist Oi! stuff there, see my sig.

That band photo reminds me of the English punk band Major Accident.
Andy from Major Accident now plays guitar in my band.

More Clockwork punx... I used to be one, hangin out at Kings Cross scaring sleazes going to brothels :D the only band willing to carry that proud title was The Adicts in my opinion.

ah gaelic. it sounds brilliant. i love oi polloi. i don't say i like particular genres but alot of what i listen to comes mostly from oi, 80's/90's harcore, ska and country. a little rap is good too. public enemy :wub: other bands i like are cock sparrer, lower class brats, GBH and even blitz. i know they are fascists but you get that from some skins. if i like the music and it doesn't have a negative message in the music then it shouldn't matter. "art for arts sake". music doesn't always have to have meaning, especially to other people. aslong as it is fulfilling for the individual then it doesn't matter! ;)

What kind of punk (if it's punk) is "Leftover Crack"?

Beats me, that's one of the few bands I can't bothered to listen to.


I picked up a Dutch hardcore album last week from an outfit called Oigasm. Just thought I'd mention it, it's a good name for a band.

Cock Sparrer, Cockney Rejects, The Business, ACAB, The Oppressed, Los Fastidios, Angelic Upstarts et cetera. Yes, there is a lot of decent Oi!. Listened to a lot of Oi! some year ago. Still listen too it at times.

Cock Sparrer and ACAB are very very good.

NEW CD/OUT SOON
RAZZAPPARTE- ITALIAN OI! STREETPUNK BANDS

Faceless
18th January 2007, 21:59
I'm no skinhead but I've got a wide punk taste and like my Streetpunk-Oi! as much (and sometimes more than) my Hardcore. None of my Hardcore mates can really get it. They are like "It's not fast enough!", as if it has to be blitz-speed to kick ass.


...and even blitz. i know they are fascists but you get that from some skins
Are Blitz actually Nazis? I heard that before, which is ashame cos i like some of their songs.

Anyhoo..
my favourites are:

Abrasive Wheels (Burn, Burn, Burn em down!)
Lowlife UK (White Dog Shit (dont use it as chalk!!))
Cock SParrer (of course)

The first two are local leeds bands, fucking awesome.

Blitz are nowere near fascism, think people get the idea because they interpret "Warriors" in the wrong way.
Blitz are some of the best to come out of Britain in that period as I see it.

yea, you get that with hardcores. To punks, its about more than just pig squeals. (though i do like my Waking the Cadaver)

Well the good thing bout Screwdriver is Ian Stuarts dead :D

Rather the romper stomper soundtrack without the lyrics, the guys who made it wasn't even nazis, just some old punks who put it together for the movie.

My fav oi band is definately the Templars. I don't think they're religious, but their albums have religious themes.

I more into the mainstream punk stuff but the band angelic upstarts are good and so are the cockney rejects.

Good that at least some of the punks that have shaved heads aren't the nazi beat the shit out of lefties kind.

19th January 2007, 05:47
Cockney Rejects, and The 4-Skins are probably are the only two I enjoy listening to.

Cock Sparrer are wonderful, and so are Oi Polloi :wub:
I also like Swingin Utters and Street Dogs a lot :D

6th March 2007, 17:07
I like me some Oi

Try Left Alone, they have a litle ska undertone
Time again, a little less ska
the casualties, probably the most hardcore oipunk band eva
and of coase, Dropkick Murphys, a little folk influence, but they're all about the working class.


Oi Oi Oi!!!

Both of those bands are awesome , Tho i prefer the Angelic Upstarts more, Like the murder of Liddle Towers....

cockney rejects kick some serious ass.

am i right in thinking that trojan skinheads get their name from a sympathy with Trojan Records, the old (and very brilliant, even if they really do release way to many compilations) reggae/ska/dub record company? or did i make that up...?

anyways red skinheads rock, its a shame fascism has become so engrained in the skinhead stereotype.
